Sphenoid sinus revisited.

W Gibson

    The Laryngoscope
    |February 1, 1984
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    This study reviews noninflammatory sphenoid sinus lesions, distinct from chronic inflammatory conditions. Diagnosis relies on imaging like CT scans, with surgical approaches offering access to this sinus.

    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology
    • Neurosurgery
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • J.H. Maxwell's 1959 work focused on diagnosing chronic inflammatory sphenoid sinus lesions.
    • Recent observations at Geisinger Medical Center highlight noninflammatory sphenoid sinus pathologies.

    Observation:

    • Noninflammatory sphenoid sinus lesions present with symptoms related to orbital and nasal abnormalities.
    • Potential symptoms include cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea and meningitis.
    • Pain, if present, is localized but less severe than in inflammatory conditions.

    Findings:

    • Diagnosis is often suspected from patient history and paranasal sinus X-rays.
    • Poytomography and computerized tomography (CT) scanning significantly improve lesion identification.
    • Surgical access is achieved via transnasal or sublabial transseptal approaches.

    Implications:

    • Accurate diagnosis of sphenoid sinus lesions is crucial for appropriate management.
    • Advanced imaging techniques enhance diagnostic capabilities for these rare conditions.
    • Surgical interventions provide necessary access for treatment of sphenoid sinus diseases.
